Sorry, 'Eburacum', but can everybody test and run in his proper Celestia the numberous wessels or objects you've just shown here, for months ???
Jeam, Didn't like the Ringworld-like for the moment, do not really understand OA (can you help me?) , but the previews seem really interesting...
I explain: I want to better sumarize your project in my catalog, but find nowhere (exept some planets) these addons to try them???

I'm making a package for the Motherlode; it is taking longer than I expected, especially trying to get the orbits right. Perhaps next week; I'll let you know when they are ready.
Orion's Arm is a collaborative worldbuilding group; we have about twenty active members and hundreds of lurkers; there are a number of us now making worlds for Celestia, and there are several hundred detailed worlds in the universe.

These bishop rings were suggested by Forrest Bishop in 1997; they are different to Niven Ringworlds (and the Halo) in that they can be made using real world materials.
